That is coming.
The most progressive countries, some in the Nordic countries, advocate aborting all disabled babies/fetuses. There are almost no retarded births in those countries. -

Like if you guys didn't understand what that meant you should have just said so, it would save us some time.
I'm going to assume that's an answer in the positive.
So the question is why? We have a framework for physical investigation. We "imagine" it in some sense, but it basically deals with what we find in the world. Why could we not have a similar moral framework in which we go out into the world and discover moral truths empirically? What is it about moral propositions that you think there's no possible way we could find their justification out in the world when we can justify "imagined" ideas like electrons by looking at the world, even though we can never directly observe them?
I may never directly "see" an electron, but electrons have an objective effect on our reality. If two different people measure the electrical properties of a circuit they will observe the exact same objective measurements. If someone doesn't "accept" the electrical theory behind their measurements and does something wrong we can see how wrong they really are when their electrical system won't work the way they expect it to. Electricity isn't a matter of opinion.
Morality on the other hand is a matter of opinion. Morality is about things like good and bad which are not found anywhere outside of your imagination. There is no way to objectively measure the amount goodness or badness we imagine specific actions have. If everyone were to agree to share the same moral theory we would all imagine the same moral conclusions, but even if we did that wouldn't tell us anything about the real world. When two people with different moral frameworks reach two different moral conclusions about a specific action there is no way for us to measure who if either of them is objectively correct.
So the question now is why do you believe morality is not a matter of opinion? Why do you believe it is anything more than a figment of our imaginations? -

definition of moral obligation: term used by those who are both mentally deficient and lacking in the ability to comprehend reality to manipulate the sane people into guilt-tripping them into conforming to their defective beliefs
kommiefornians thought they had a moral obligation to save all the creepy-crawlies in the forrest by not conducting controlled burns to prevent out of control wildfires. which resulted in billions of dollars in damage and dozens of deaths
mentally deficient floridians claimed they had a moral obligation to save the manatees. now the manatee population has grown to such an astronomical size that they have eaten literally all of the sea grass that was required to clean the local estuary while shitting out the post-digested sea grass which is creating a manatee shit storm
retards claimed that there was the moral obligation to save the alliLANNYISAFAGgators…and save the coyotes…and now peoples pets are disappearing and humans are being attacked…and eaten…on a regular basis. so often it isnt even reported in the media.
the human race has the obligation to institutionalize and lobotomize any of the mentally deficient that attempt to use the term 'moral obligation' in any fashion
morality is a myth...with no more substance or reality than santa claus, the easter bunny, or chocolate-shitting unicorns. -
